First of all, I have to say, I absolutely hate the new forum layout. Having nothing but problems.
Now that's out of the way, here is the first taste of Android 5.0 for our Samsung Galaxy S3s. Thank you, Isaiah PEz! I'm currently running this build and it is awesome. I originally posted this in my Android 4.4.4 Nightlies list but I figured it needed it's own thread.
The first official CM12 nightlies should come around December 1st. Cyanogenmod decided to deunify Samsung Galaxy S3 builds after unifying them in February. From now on, at least with Cyanogenmod, you'll have look for d2spr builds. There are a few things you need to flash in order to get this unofficial CM12 d2spr build to work. First of all is the ROM, of course. You also need Android 5.0 GAPPS, Chainfire's SuperSU 2.27 (made to work with Android 5.0), and the APN settings to get data to work.
I saw on a previous screenshot of Isaiah PEz testing of his build that he was using the MD4 modem. I will include that as well. If your Galaxy S3 came with Android 4.1.2 preinstalled and you haven't updated your modem/bootloader, you will need to flash the modem. If your Galaxy S3 came with Android 4.3 or newer preinstalled, you do NOT need to flash the modem or you will run the risk of hard-bricking your phone.
So, here we go:
Flash in this order:
1) MD4 modem (only flash if Android 4.1.2 preinstalled and haven't upgraded modem/bootloader)
2) Unofficial CM12 d2spr build
3) Android 5.0 GAPPS
4) SuperSU 2.27
5) APN Settings
6) Lollipop Boot Animation (optional)
